It's a good job......

......that I've got a sense of humour.


I thought I'd post photos of the beautiful white tulips, I planted in the Autumn.

Yes, that's right......

White tulips......

I think there's been a mix up......

But the style police haven't knocked on the door yet......

And they are still quite lovely in their own way.


I like to think someone somewhere is having a chuckle.


Nature...... Garden centre...... Optician!


Photos taken on a rainy afternoon in the front garden of our little house in London.


Have a great weekend.

Up the blues......

Last week my husband and sons thought it would be fun to take me to a football (soccer) match.

Tottenham Hotspur versus Chelsea.

Now I'm not a football fan but apparently "we was robbed!!"

Aesthetically, however it was quite pleasing as both teams play in blue.

And that got me thinking......

It's such a great colour combination......

Can be moody......

Always versatile......

A purple hue......

Can you be too blue?......

Aah...... the dream......

The reality......

This ones personal......

Its the blue garden chair where my friend Sally G spent many a peaceful hour before losing her long battle with cancer last week......

The end......

Have a great week......
